The Travel Agent Next Door walked away with three awards from Celebrity Cruises for 2025 including Partner of the Year for the third time. Celebrity’s Allan Brooks and Brenda Yeomans visited the TTAND office in Toronto last week to present the awards. 

TTAND was named Partner of the Year Canada, Key Account of the Year and the host agency also took home a Top 50 North America award. 

“We are extremely honoured to receive three awards from Celebrity, “said Flemming Friisdahl, TTAND CEO. “They are great partners and being named Partner of the Year for a third time is a testament to how TTAND agents support our preferred suppliers.”

“These achievements reflect your hard work, dedication, and remarkable impact across the marketplace. We’re excited to continue building success together in the years ahead,” Brooks said.

He added: “We are incredibly proud to work alongside such exceptional travel partners—leaders who continually push our industry forward with passion, innovation, and unwavering commitment to their agents and customers. Collaborating with teams that grow, adapt, and elevate the traveler experience inspires us every day, and we are truly honoured to be part of their journey.”

Brenda Lynne Yeomans, Key Account Manager, Sales – Canada, and a very familiar face of the brand to Canadian advisors.

“It has been truly inspiring working with TTAND and watching their incredible growth over the past 12 years, as they continue to elevate their Celebrity sales and shine brighter every single year. I’m so proud and deeply grateful for this outstanding partnership, and I can’t wait to celebrate even more amazing success together.”
